Madelaine is a mum to one boy, Sebastian. Madelaine went into unexpected labour at home at 35 weeks on a remote island in the Northern Territory. She was required to be transported by Care Flight off the island to Darwin. Madelaine and her husband landed in Darwin where Sebastian was born very shortly after at the Darwin Private Hospital. Sebastian spent time in the special care nursery before going home.
Outside of being a mum, Madelaine holds a Bachelor of Law. She hopes to use her lived experience to assist other families navigating similar paths.
